Batman returns (to practice): Steph Curry rejoins Warriors after quad injury

At Chase Center, Stephen Curry practiced fully and scrimmaged Wednesday, and Steve Kerr said he is day-to-day and expected to play Friday against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
After the Nov. 26 injury, Stephen Curry missed five games with a left quad issue against the Houston Rockets, marking his second absence of the season.
Across 16 games this season, Stephen Curry, Golden State Warriors guard, averages 27.9 points and 4.0 assists with 39.1% from behind the 3-point line, scoring 30+ points in seven games including three 40-point outings.
Pat Spencer will head back to the bench as Stephen Curry returns, but Spencer is expected to keep significant minutes after scoring double figures in four straight games, while Jonathan Kuminga's status remains uncertain after talks with Steve Kerr, who said he will 'coach hard'.
With four days off ahead of the matchup, the Warriors went 3-2 without Curry and Draymond Green is expected for Friday's first meeting since Minnesota eliminated Golden State last spring.
